I love my General Grabbers and AT2's. They are a little rough on the street but an awesome tire off-road. The AT2's get stuck in the mud very easily though. I've had the AT2's on my daily for 4 years now with little wear and I drive an average of 14,000 miles a year.

Pros: awesome tire off-road, little wear
Cons: rough on the street, stuck in mud
Mileage: 56000 km

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I live in Maine... as you can expect we get plenty of snow/ice. Never needed studded tires unless I was driving on a giant sheet of ice i.e. frozen lake. I run General Altimax Arctics on my 4Motion Passat, about $80/tire in 16" sizes.

Pros: good in snow/ice
Cons: only on sheet ice

I have these on my TDI for about 1 year now. I like them They didn't affect my MPG as I still get 41 MPG and the road noise is minimal. I too live in the Seattle region and have made multiple trip to Vegas and Salt Lake and the tires held up well. Glad I did, I feel that I have confidant cornering and good braking abilities with low road noise.

Pros: confidant cornering, good braking
Cons: none
Vehicle: Audi A3

I ponied up the money for a new set of Continentals (Purecontact with ecoplus) because my previous set last 50K miles and had excellent grip throughout. They did become loud towards the end.

Pros: excellent grip, long lasting
Cons: became loud towards end
Mileage: 50000 km

I was running OEM Continental Conti-seal Pro-contact and was not very happy with price. Went through two sets and had issues with road wear and durability (slightest potholes wreck the sidewalls) so I decided to get a set of the Continental ProContact Extreme DWS. I got a great deal on them w/ a 70 rebate to boot. I find them far superior so far. Great dry/wet traction. Minimal road noise. I had them paired with a new set of Niche Targa 18's... hit a pothole in the first week (cant tell you how freaked out I was at impact!) but they kept going just fine. No sidewall damage, no bent wheel (compared to OEM wheel). Cant tell about winter though as I run winter wheel setup. I would recommend you check them out.

Pros: great dry/wet traction
Cons: issues with road wear

I am currently running Continental ContiSportContact 5P. They are even stickier that the ExtremeContact DWs I had on my W8. I have two summers on them and do not have any cupping, I have only have been rotating front-back.

Pros: no cupping, very sticky
Cons: a bit expensive
